I just read that list. I don't know about the Brunehaut stuff. I've had the Greens and didn't like those if I remember.

The Estrella Daura I had as my favorite is listed as one of their worst. Funnily enough I don't necessarily disagree with their assessment. They say it tastes like Bud. I (kinda) think so too. Most gluten free beers taste like Saki and Vinegar ..so Bud is a pretty good mark.

I've had most of the New Planet stuff at festivals around here, it just tastes like rice beer to me.. The IPA is not good. It's really popular, it is Colorado though too, so.

The Bards Dragon Tale they rated high. I think it's a good one too. I'm not sure how anyone could compare it to a Newcastle though.. There isn't a single gluten free beer in existence that can get that dark. Gluten free is tough. Really f­ucks up Beer, pizza, sandwiches, and a variety of other good snacks. The breads and brews made as replacements really are lacking in comparison, but if it's all you got there are decent enough options. Good Organic English Cider Bombers were always a good way for me to go with her.

Can somebody explain bomber pricing to me? Why are bombers (significantly) more expensive per ounce than 12oz bottles?

In these parts, Boulevard smokestack series are $9.99 for 4/12oz and $9.99 for a 22oz bomber. What?! You do the math.

Same is true for other brands, of course.

(Although an instance of a reversal: In one local brewery's tap room you can get a "pint" for $4 or $4.50, but they'll also sell you a 3-pack of bombers for $9.99. And when I bought one to take home, it was cold! I almost asked the waitress if I could just order 3-packs and open and drink them there.)

From my observations, most one offs and and specialty brews only come out in "Bombers" and their price tends to be higher due to limited release or for being a specialty. A lot of the stores I frequent price "regular" releases that are also available in bombers at the same price point as the specialty ones with comparable ABV and/or style; even if the overhead is much less. They are either oblivious to what they are truly pricing or don't think the consumer will notice the hike in price because they all are priced comparably to others (even if the quality and demand is inferior).
